1. The last of the real ones from Fall Out Boy

2. You’re gonna go far, kid from The Offspring

3. I‘m shipping up to Boston from the Dropkick Murphys

4. Joker and the thief from Wolfmother

5. The sound of San Francisco from the Global Deejays

Among others, these are the songs I like to listen to when I'm cycling, going for a walk or at the gym.

But I also love the music from the Bluey series.

Silly Game Time: The fifth most recent image you saved or shared (either by reblogging it, saving it directly to your device, or making it yourself--you choose) is how next week is going to go.

What is it? And on a scale of 1 to 10, how's your outlook?

The fifth most recent picture on my phone would be my daughter on a pumpkin. (Please don't judge 😅. The pumpkin sculpture hype has also reached us).

Happy, with her cuddle bee and flashing boots.

So I would say: balanced and content.
